My Chances

Colleges and Universities A-Z Fordham University

<p>So basically, I'm applying to Fordham LC as a transfer. My application is really close to being finalized. I'm just cleaning up my entry letter and making everything shiny and pristine.</p>

<p>The only thing I'm worried about is my GPA. It's in the 3.2 to 3.3 margin. No SAT scores because I have more than two years in college. I'm applying as a communications major with a concentration on journalism. I've spoken with members of the faculty and I've acclimated myself with the school newspaper. I have a lot going for me as a journalism major as I have plenty of experience in the field of journalism, and I'd say I have a B+ to A- average, but I'm very, very nervous about the GPA thing.</p>

<p>I had a 3.75 in high school, but as I've been in community college for two years, they wont count that.</p>

<p>So what are my chances of getting in?</p>

<p>For transfer students usually its different as far as gpa goes. I know in the website fordham mentions a minimum of 3.0 so i say your good. The observer is a good paper i believe it was ranked well(not very sure). which comm coll did you attend, that too can have an effect and the classes you took.</p>

<p>College of the Desert in Palm Desert, CA, which is just fairly small but it's in a very cultural city (outside of Palm Springs) with many diverse people. It's given me a lot of opportunities. Fingers crossed I get in!</p>
